Definitely respect that mans dedication to his craft.
Shawn Porter is an example of a boxer who is doing it all the right way

Yeah he a great fighter I like how he keeps getting physically better every fight ever since he hooked up with Victor Conte, definitely a great decision him and father made bringing in Victor Conte into the equation to better his career.Comment

Is he really in the Mayweather gym? because his Dad seems to hate Mayweather.At the start you wouldn't say he was overly gifted or skilled so what does his dad do? Takes him to be Pacquiao's chief sparring partner and you can tell some of that has rubbed off on his style. After sparring Pacquiao he's now in the Mayweather boxing gym getting sparring from some of the best talent in the world, all the while he stepped up his competition slowly but surely to the point he is now a legit world champion.
So many of the great fighters of yesteryear learnt from others in their stable, like Holmes and Ali. Porter is doing all the right things. Kell Brook who I would say was more talented than Porter is simply not getting the work than Shawn has gotten the past 4-5 years and is not improving as rapidly, right now Porter would be the favourite over Kell.Comment

TS you had a good point till you mentioned that Mayweather gym has some of the best talent in the world.
The only thing they're talented at in there is taking PEDs.

Wait wait wait! Hold the **** up!
Porter works with Conte and hangs out in the Mayweather gym? No wonder he's so ****ing strong and unstoppable. They need to test the man.
Oh hell no.
Conte worked with Berto who got caught dirty and worked with Ward who always refused to get tested even tho he said he supported random testing.

key is progress, Porter has progressed well and he has had a great team around I'm.At the start you wouldn't say he was overly gifted or skilled so what does his dad do? Takes him to be Pacquiao's chief sparring partner and you can tell some of that has rubbed off on his style. After sparring Pacquiao he's now in the Mayweather boxing gym getting sparring from some of the best talent in the world, all the while he stepped up his competition slowly but surely to the point he is now a legit world champion.
So many of the great fighters of yesteryear learnt from others in their stable, like Holmes and Ali. Porter is doing all the right things. Kell Brook who I would say was more talented than Porter is simply not getting the work than Shawn has gotten the past 4-5 years and is not improving as rapidly, right now Porter would be the favourite over Kell.
The moment Brook joined with hearns, they were too busy trying to position him as a star, rather than trying to work with him and develop a great talent.
Brook hasn't been looked after physically, too many injuries, too many low key bouts although Senchenko and Jones are not bad opponents but some 2-3 years ago, Brook was looking great, now he already looks like a has-been.
However, I do think, if he ups his game and brings his best, he can beat Porter but I'm just not sure if he has that fire anymore.Comment
